Details for: CL0002243
Cell ID: CL0002243
Cell Name: smooth muscle cell of sphincter of pupil
CSI Thresholds:
(Cell Significance Index is uniquely calculated using our advanced thresholding algorithms to reveal cell-specific gene markers.)Description: A circular smooth muscle cell of the iris, innervated by the ciliary nerves (parasympathetic), and acting to contract the pupil. This muscle cell derives from neuroectoderm. This smooth muscle cell results from transformation of epithelial cells to smooth muscle cells.
Synonyms: smooth muscle fiber of sphincter of pupil, smooth muscle fibre of sphincter of pupil
